A body is discovered by a vagrant in a park in Irish Brooklyn, shot in the head. Detective Noah Keefe, a tough, determined officer, gets the case and he soon learns that the victim was an honored officer in the Royal Constabulary Belfast, the Northern Island Protestant police, detested by the Irish Republican Army. Have the Catholics and Protestants of Belfast brought their fight to Brooklyn?
